Our Process

  1. I work with the contact (You or a family member) on designing a personalized series of questions and prompts. The interviewee gets these ideas days before so they have time to think, remember, and contemplate, but not memorize.
  2. On the day of the interview, we bring over lighting, audio equipment, and all of our camera gear to whatever location at which you would like it to be filmed. Wherever is most comfortable to you is best! We set up lighting in the best spots and get audio ready.
  3. The fun part. You get to talk about you! Your life, trials, joys, experiences, and anything else you want to tell your future generations. Sit comfortably as we go through questions and any story you want to tell. Make a mistake? No problem, anything you want to say differently or redo we can keep rolling or restart. I edit myself out of the audio, so all people will see and hear is you.
  4. We may take additional on-site video of your home, or things important to you. Have a skill? Show it off! We also copy any digital photos or videos you have and integrate them into your story at key points onto our Lasting Legacies hard drive.
  5. We leave! We get started on editing the same day. While our goal is to get you your video to you as soon as possible, we ask for your patience as editing even an hour of the interview can take upwards of 25+ hours. What can I say, I’m a perfectionist! I make sure not a single frame or sound is missed.
  6. It’s done! We deliver it on 5 flash drives, as well as uploading it to a site for your viewing, and linking to Ancestry, FamilySearch, or any other genealogy site you prefer. Now sit back and share with family and friends! For years to come you will have an amazing studio-quality video biography to be be watched by family and generations to come. You can take comfort in knowing you have created your own Lasting Legacy.
